100 Seeds Berseem Clover Trifolium alexandrinum Annual Forage Legume Green Manure

Berseem Clover is a fast-growing annual clover prized for its lush, dense foliage and vigorous cool-season growth. Its vibrant green leaves and small creamy-white flower heads make it an attractive choice for cover cropping, pasture blends, and seasonal ground cover in garden or field settings. This legume establishes quickly and produces abundant biomass, making it a practical and visually appealing addition to many planting plans.

Berseem Clover works well as a green manure, cover crop, or forage component in mixed plantings. It grows upright and bushy, tolerating repeated cutting and regrowing readily in suitable conditions. The fine-textured foliage blends nicely into meadows and borders, and its nitrogen-fixing nature supports soil building between main crops. It performs best in cool weather and can be sown in spring or autumn depending on the region.
